I thought it was because of Virginia Dare. The first English baby born in "The New World". I may be completely wrong though.

basically what you know is all there is to know. check out this website...it's on the state of Virginia, and scroll down to the 'origin'. it'll tell you exactly that it was named after the "virgin" queen elizabeth.

Virginia is from the latin Virgo, virginis. It means "virgin" or "maiden". So literally, yes. (Think of the number of colony Virgina is in the USA - yes it is the virgin colony).

^ Yes, after the first New World baby, Virginia Dare. (Just confirming it.)
